Yahoo is in a legal dispute with web site Cryptome after discovering that
private information regarding services provided by Yahoo to law enforcement
bodies is being made publically available online.
Represented by US law firm Steptoe & Johnson, Yahoo has written to Cryptome
arguing that it has breached copyright laws by hosting the documents.
"We ask that Cryptome immediately remove all such infringing material on its
web site. We are sure you appreciate the importance of this matter, as
disclosure of this information will assist criminals to structure their
communications to evade apprehension," said the letter issued by lawyer Mike
Gershberg.
